( the us version uses old features from the uk edition this months issue had december 2000 s club 7 interview in it)
However what about a truman show game
in the sim city/sims style
1) create a town for truman
2) organise the actors into roles
3) control actors
4) stop truman from discovering the truth
Or in an adventure style
through various stages of his life, with the aim of getting to the end of the film ( I won't spoil the ending for anyone that has not seen it yet)
A rush hour/ rush hour 2 game
involving jackie chan's inventive style: can use most things as weapons and therefore making the scenery more interactive.
also any thoughts on the buffy the vampire slayer game for the x box?
I have checked on the older posts under the game ideas and retro games section and this is currently the most contributed topic about 13 more posts than its closest rival!
It makes me slightly proud of that fact.
with a mix of surreal sugestions and serious ideas for games.
please continue to contribute to this topic or at least read it.
Is there anything good on uk tv recently?
I heard there was a trek night on the bbc, and it had the ds9 episode with kirk and the tribbles.
I have seen a magazine here called FHM TV I suspect it is a tv guide of some sort, the last time I checked they did not have that magazine at home. so hopefully I will have some inspiration soon to add more Ideas to this topic.
(I did catch about five minutes of tv here I saw a sports person charity who want to be a millionaire, it had tony hawk on it but I did not see if he got to go to the hotseat. also chris tarrant is a much better host than reggis philbin (I think that is his name) chriss adds more tension and is slightly more eeeevviilllllll than his american counterpart.)
my predictions are that a game will be made of the 5th star trek series enterprise, and one to look out for is a programme called 24 : 24 episodes spanning one hour each of the same day with some plotline that I can't remember right now, or possibly games that revolve around the whole set in one day premise.
I'm sure these programmes will be on sky and then eventually terrestrial television.

It could be a sims style game but as you said taking control of the animal residents, and using them to evict/send to jail the human residents by whatever means possible.
